There are three fields of activity in which our research activity is currently being carried out:

• Clinical environment. Through collaboration with different Valencian public health centres, we have been studying the effects of physical exercise in populations with chronic degenerative conditions, such as osteoarthritis or low back pain. We have also carried out several research projects with patients who suffer from cancer, haemophilia and diabetes.
• Sporting environment. In this area we study all of the factors involved in the processes of injury during sports practice. With this information, specific preventative programmes are designed according to the sporting specialty, selecting the most effective exercises in order to facilitate the correct sports rehabilitation.
• Work environment. In collaboration with Dr. Lars L. Andersen, head of the department of musculoskeletal damage at The National Research Center of Working Environment, we have been able to develop several studies related to injuries produced in the work environment, such as healthcare professions (orderlies, physiotherapists), and other non-health professions (musicians, administrative staff).
